FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB SBS pods?

The ABZORB SBS pods in the heel are designed to provide enhanced shock absorption and stability, contributing to overall comfort and support during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The 1906A trainers are primarily designed for structured, everyday performance and comfort, rather than specialized athletic activities like running. They offer good cushioning for walking and casual wear.

How should I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?

Use a soft brush and a mild soap solution mixed with water. Gently scrub the mesh to remove dirt, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What material are the overlays made of?

The overlays are made of rugged suede, which adds durability and a classic aesthetic to the trainers.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The design incorporates features like a rigid heel cage and cushioned midsole for overall support. Individual arch support needs may vary, and an orthotic insert can be used if additional support is required.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. The mesh upper can absorb moisture, and suede is best kept dry to maintain its condition. Avoid wearing in heavy rain or wet environments.

What is the main difference between the 1906A and other New Balance models like the 2002R?

The 1906A shares a similar sole unit technology with models like the 2002R and 860v2, featuring ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS. The 1906A distinguishes itself with a specific upper design incorporating open-holed mesh and curvilinear synthetic overlays, offering a refined take on performance heritage.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone easily

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing with different lace material if slippage persists.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the correct size is being worn and adjust lacing for a comfortable fit.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specialized suede cleaning products.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning is designed for durability, but performance may decrease with very heavy, prolonged use. Ensure the shoes are not overused for activities they are not intended for.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult foot sizes and are suitable for general everyday use. They pair well with casual attire such as jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear.

Care Instructions:

  • Upper: Gently clean mesh areas with a soft brush and mild soap diluted in water. For suede overlays, use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture. Avoid excessive water saturation.

  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to protect from dust and prolonged sunlight.
